No that's not what i was saying.
When u loan people who gamble for a living U are taking a chance.
Its the same as gambling with you're own money, if Y'all can't afford to lose it don't loan it.
Its not like people didn't know erick wasin't a addict.
If he was guilty of a crime then all be it out him.( i know p.s is suing )as far as i know he ain't been found guilty of a crime yet. Also don't cry over spilled milk. Just because he run below -ev

Agree with pretending to cash for 50k.

I think people in debt to someone need to be completely transparent though.

Example: If he really needed all of the money so someone didn't bash his face in, I'd be like alright man how about a small payment for good faith.

Are you claiming that Erick Lindgren is not a fantastic brand representative for a sports betting website?

I don't like E-Dog but when you get in debt you have to go to work to get out of it. This is his job.

294k? He used to get paid 250k a month I believe from scam full-tilt. How's the poor man gonna manage with such a pittance. This guy is just like Chino with his scams but because he has rich friends he gets a pass. Gotta love it.

He didn’t finish it off. He lost heads up

Does Lindgren still get to live a high stakes lifestyle (staying in fancy hotels, eating at high end restaurants, etc) while grinding tournaments these days? Wouldn't surprise me given that he's already heavily staked and probably still has plenty of friends in the poker world who are sympathetic to his situation. If so, owing millions isn't necessarily so bad lol

Brutal. Had an 8-1 chip lead at one point.

Looks like he lost a 55-60 big pot AIPF with QQ vs KK.

Bad beat! Not sure why, but was rooting for him. Maybe b/c I can identify with his degeneratecy.

I saw him up close at Cherokee. He looks awful, like the stress/lifestyle of being a degenerate has really gotten to him

Wonder if he's doing drugs.

He's starting to look like coked out John Holmes

Jesus. I could sit at a table for a day and not recognize him until someone told me.

Reminds me of seeing Eli Elezra on LATB recently and I didn't realize it was him at first. He looked much better than before as opposed to Lindgren though...

Wow, he does look strung out. Sad, even though he's a scumbag.

gotta be pretty old at this stage?
being a degen is a full time 24/7 job so its probably tough

He's only 41 years old

Maybe he's just tired.

1) the pic has some odd shadows and he's 10 years past his tv prime when people saw him on tv as the "All-American". So that could explain his appearance. I don't think he was ever a big drinker/smoker but who knows about worse drugs.

2) He seems to be keeping his head down and is humbled and not living extravagantly. Big egos fall hard when the house of cards tumbles. But I don't know him or his circle, so who know knows.

3) I'd imagine he's quite profitable in the bigger field low buy-in high gtd nlhe events.

4) First thing I thought of when I read he had massive CL and lost is that he made a deal w the winner to secure some lien/debt-free money that nobody would know about. That's not an accusation or even speculation; it's just the first thing I thought of.

Hope he has it together - mostly for the sake of the people that depend on him or who he owes that will benefit - but also just for his own well-being.

Sad to see such a downfall. Lost all his $$,his incredible Full Tilt annuity, and his beautiful wife & kid. Hopefully he makes a comeback and lives a healthly well balanced life

My cousin had a bad drug problem and went to rehab 3 times. He died way too young. That Lindgren pic is scary because you're right. He looks like he is very strung out.

People used to post pics of his wife on 2+2. ECB please post pics of your wife. McKeehan shouldn’t be the only one that gets to see her.
